Please Read These Policies If You Are Shipping Paintball Guns Internationally

We do ship products outside the United States, however please read these policies regarding international shipping. We do not ship to every country. Below is a list of countries we either do or don’t ship to; if you don’t see your country in our list and want to know if we ship there, please contact us at questions@choicepaintballguns.com.

If we do not ship to your country it is because either paintball guns are illegal to import or there is a high level of theft from shipping to your country. If your country is listed as one we do not ship to, please do not contact us and ask us why. We also reserve the right to refuse service to any person, company, agency, or organization at any time, for any reason whatsoever. We will not ship to any person under 18 years of age.

We cannot offer any further discounts to international customers than the sales prices already listed on our website. We will not entertain bulk volume orders from international customers if you have never ordered from us before. Please do not contact us and ask for a quote of 25 paintball guns, etc. if you have no order history with us.

We offer US Mail and UPS Worldwide Expedited as shipping methods outside the U.S.; please choose one of these as your shipping method. We also reserve the right to change shipping methods in order to avoid product back order delays or to help get your order through customs. We have no control, nor are responsible for any losses of products/monies/orders from European Customs interceptions.

Different countries have different restrictions regarding paintball guns and equipment; it is a good idea to contact us and check to make sure we can ship what you want to your country. Please check with your country’s customs rules before ordering; it is the customer’s responsibility to find out any custom’s restrictions on paintball guns or necessary documents/permits required for shipping before ordering and alert us of specific details.

Our website does not charge tax on international orders, however the border of your country may. All border taxes and customs fees are the responsibility of the customer; please do not contact us with questions asking how much tax your country charges to import a paintball gun. If you refuse to pay customs taxes and your package is sent back to us, we will process a refund, minus shipping expenses and 25-30% restocking fee.

It is up to the customer to handle any and all taxes imposed by customs, regardless of whether or not they send you a notification of monies due. It is also the customer's responsibility to deal with their country's customs agents; we will not contact your country's customs to find out where your package is. After your order is sent, we will send you a tracking number.

When USPS is used as the shipping method, many times the tracking number will not show any information until your package has reached your country’s border. After you are given a tracking number, it is up to the customer to follow up with any customs communications, monies due and picking up your package. If you fail to pick up your package from customs, they will often ship it back to us. If this happens, upon receipt of the returned package, we will give you a refund, minus shipping expenses (unless the package was refused or taxes were unpaid, in which case there will also be a re-stocking fee).

We reserve the right to refuse international orders with different shipping and billing addresses. International orders MUST have matching billing and shipping addresses or we will not accept your order. For international orders with different addresses to be considered, we will need copies of the actual card used and photo id emailed to us. Please note the following list of countries we ship to and information to know before ordering as well as countries we do not…

Australia

Australia has fairly strict rules about importing paintball guns. You must have a permit and gun license to import them into this country; we will also require copies of these documents so we can include them with the customs shipping documents to send with your package. If you want to import a paintball gun into Australia, we will not entertain your order without these documents. Paintballs are also questionable to ship to Australia. We have shipped paintballs successfully to Australia, however sometimes they will get stopped and destroyed by customs as they seem to think paintballs can also be used in more dangerous weapons. All other paintball accessories and supplies are legal to import without any extra paperwork.

If you contact Canadian customs and ask them if your gun is legal to import, you will get mixed responses.

Please choose either USPS or UPS Worldwide Expedited as shipping methods to Canada.
